Retrieving calendar and contacts data from OSX Server Time Machine

Due to a system failure I went out an brought a Macbook Air. My other Mac is away being assessed by a repair shop.
By plugging in the Time Machine drive from the other Mac I have managed to recover my files, videos, photos etc. Contacts and Calendars however are proving to to more difficult.
The old Mac was setup using Mavericks Server as a workaround for the removal of Calendar and Contacts iTunes sync in Mavericks.
The Contacts and Calendars are currectly synced with an iPad and an iPhone.
Is there anyway of recovering the Contacts and Calendars data from the Time Machine backup drive, My iPad or iPhone?
Any help appreciated with this complicated problem.

It sounds as if it is the same, or closely related, to this thread Time Machine Service Page in Server App says "Error Reading Settings"

Migrating Calendar and Contact Data from a PC to a Mac

When converting from PC to Mac, can calendar and contact data exported to a .PST file be opened in directly, successfully in the Outlook 2011 for the Mac?
Can anyone advise on how to export calendar and contact data from the PC, such that it can be opened or imported into iCal and Address Book respectively?
Many thanks.

How to retrieve email and contacts data from time machine from a different computer

My iMac hard disc has died and though I have everything backed up on Time Machine I am finding it difficult to access my Contacts (not on iCloud) and emails from my laptop.
I understand that they are to be found on the Time Machine backup in library/applicationsupport/addressbook and /Library/Mail/V2, but these files appear to be hidden.
From my reading it has been suggested that I use the utility Terminal, but I don’t know where to start with this – any guidance would be most welcome

How do I get my calendar and contacts data to sync to computer?

After instal of Maverick, iPhone data syncs to iCloud, but not to computer. How do I get my calendar and contacts data to sync to computer?

Sounds like your Mac is not logged into the same iCloud account that your phone is. When Mavericks is installed it prompts you for an AppleID during setup.
Unfortunately and confusingly it then uses that AppleID to help you set up the Apple Store, iCloud, and Messages even though many users do not use the same AppleID for all of those services. This is particularly true of familys that share one AppleID for the "Store" but use separate AppleID's for each users iCloud data.
Therefore, put your iPhone next to your Mac and go to "Settings" > "iCloud". Make sure that the iCloud account listed on your iPhone is the same as the one listed when you go to "System Preferences" > "iCloud" on your Mac. If they match (or not) then click "sign out" on your Mac to disconnect the account. Then, on the Mac (still in the iCloud preference pane), log (back) into the same iCloud account being used on your iPhone and enable the same set of services that are enabled on your iPhone (particularly calendar and contacts).
Then, open the Contacts application on the mac and iCal on the Mac and walk away for a few minutes to allow the data to sync. You may then want to create a test calendar event and change a contact to see if they sync up.
One additional thought is to make sure that your iPhone is set to "Push" for iCloud. That will assure that it's syncing immediately while you are testing this.
Hope this helps.

I have a new computer. I've installed iTunes. I don't want to lose the calendar and contact data nor the apps currently on my iPod Touch. Will that happen when I sync?

I have a new computer. I've installed iTunes. I don't want to lose the calendar and contact data nor the apps currently on my iPod Touch. Will that happen when I sync?

I don't think so. When you open iTunes, go to "Store" on the top and click "Authorize this Computer." Type in your email and pass, and click authorize. Then, when you connect you iPod for the first time, it should tell you "this iPod is synced with another computer, blah blah." It should give you the option to either "Erase and Sync," or "Transfer Purchases." Click "Transfer Purchases and your content should go into your new iTunes.
If this doesn't work and you still have your old computer there's another thing you can do. I know this works on windows, but I'm not sure how to do it on a Mac, maybe someone can offer some help. Assuming you have Windows, go to Start>Music>iTunes Media and you should see Music, Apps, Movies, etc. This is all the stuff in your iTunes. If you have an external hard drive or your iTunes library is small in terms of file size, you can do this in one go. Transfer the content (as much as you can fit at one time) onto the external storage. Then, put that content on your new computer on the desktop or somewhere where you can find it again. Open iTunes, and folder by folder highlight everything in the folder and drag it into the iTunes library. It should say "importing (content)" or something and then it should be in your library. If you look in your Music folder again, there should now be another "iTunes" folder there with all of your content back in it.
Hope one if these options works for you. Best of luck!

Restore Lion OS from Lion Server Time Machine Backup?

I am running a Intel Imac 2008 clean install SL then Lion upgrade, followed by Lion Server install. I have multiple home macs, and intnded the server as a way to monitor and restrict kids internet use. In short, it has changes/screwed up multiple programs, and complicated home sharing issues considerably. Mail on the server machine has permission problems (cannot send mail, unable to sign), Spotlight in mail is non-functioning, finder spotlight searches are inconsistent, etc. I want to revert to plain old Lion.
I have done disk utility/verify disk and verified/repaired permissions, and have 'fiddled' (i'm not an expert) in the keychain/certificates areas, but I think the best solution is a clean install of Lion. QUESTION: When I backup to TIme Machine, is there a way to pull a 'Lion' version of my disk image back, and just not upgrade to Server? I understand I can disable Server and turn off applications in Server, but it doesn't fix my buggy machine. My options are to back up my 250GB of music, 100GB of photos, 100GB of movies, etc on to external drives, and clean install and then reimport everything, but even that will probably mean I cant reinstall my single user licesnse of MS office, VMware fusion, etc that I didn't buy on the App store. I'd really love to be able to do this with Time machine. Any chance? or do I need to do the dark deed of 2 days of backup?

Sorry, I don't mean to be stupid, but I want to be sure. My impresion of Time machine disk images (I'm not a computer genius, but I'm , lets say, an expert novice) is that disk images (my term for the 'total view' of a computers main disk), differ depending on the OS. I assume that applications and preferences referenced under SL could not be seamlessly imported into a Lion environment. I'm assumng that the upgrade to Lion server has irrevocaby altered my startup/main volume into a "Lion Server" volume, and that if I try to pull my applications/data/preferences/mailboxes back onto a fresh Lion interface, it won't work. Are you saying I'm wrong, and that I can simply erase my disc, clean install Lion via an internet connection, and re-import my "lion Server- altered' stuff back from aLion-server Time Machine disk image, seamlessly, into a Lion OS environment? Sorry to be so concrete, but my wife will kill me if I %$@ the bed on this. I appreciatre your help.

How come calendars and contacts vanish from iPhone after upgrade to iTunes 6.1.2?

How come calandras and contacts vanish from iPhone after upgrade to iTunes 6.1.2?

Hi, Did you work out a fix for this? All my calender dates (past & future) and the last 12 months of new contacts gone!!!! And yes i too back up regularly.
Previously when the great 5 upgrade happened, i did loss everything, and although I was doing backups none of that info was relative in an English way. A whole life of important, unreplaceable information gone! Never to be found.
All of my products are apple, but it seems that little people dont matter to them, with no recourse for the damage to my personal or professional life.
Extremly disappointed again!

Can I restore my applications and data from a ML time machine back up to a machine running Lion?

Because of the horrible battery life with Mountain Lion (10.8.2), I am looking to downgrade to Lion. I have a Time Machine backup of my current machine, running ML. I do not want to restore all the way back to my last Lion backup, because that was a while ago. Basically, I want to backup my current ML hard drive, erase the computer, perform a fresh Lion install, and restore my apps/data using the ML Time Machine backup. Is the ML Time Machine backward compatiable with Lion?

I am unaware of any battery life problem with Mountain Lion. There are many problems with incompatible 3rd party software, but that is a different problem.
I wrote a little diagnostic program to help show what might be causing these problems. Download EtreCheck from http://www.etresoft.com/download/EtreCheck.zip, run it, and paste the results here.
Will the ML Time Machine be backwards compatiable with Lion?
No. 3rd party application may be fine. Most Apple applications and data will not work.
Disclaimer: Although EtreCheck is free, there are other links on my site that could give me some form of compensation, financial or otherwise.

Retriving data from an incomplete time machine back up

Hi,
I have an incomplete time machine back up. Can I retrieve data from it?
Thanks,

It was my first time machine back up. Mid way I felt that it is stuck so I powered down my mac book pro. Now its not booting. I gave the details in a simultaneous thread "Gray screen, spinning cog and midway to first back up of time machine". I am assuming that if I have lost all the data on my harddrive, can I at least get some from the incomplete time machine back up.
well, it might be possible but it won't be in any form that you can retrieve automatically. so your first priority should be to get your computer to boot and after what you can start worrying about getting your data from an incomplete TM backup. I've done that it the past and it works sometimes but it really depends on the situation. I had to do it from terminal too as it didn't work from finder.
but it need not be that you lost all data on the main drive. boot from the SL install dvd and see if disk utility sees the drive. if so, repair the drive and try booting from it. if you have disk warrior it might help too if disk utility can not fix some errors.

Transfer of Product Master and Contract data from SRM server to CAT

Hi,
We are using XI system to send product master data from SRM system to CAT (catalogue authorising tool) wherein both the SRM and the CAT add-on have been installed on the same web application server.
On the SRM-> XI part, we are going to use ABAP client proxy. My question is can we use ABAP server proxy to send data from XI to CAT ? In other words, is CAT a part of ABAP system so that we can use proxy ??
I am new to SAP environment and hence this question.
Regards
Ramesh

Hello Ramesh,
for uploading SRM master data to CCM u need not do any developements in ABAP , u have to just import SAP predefined SWCV's in Integration repository and configure required scenario "MasterDataInclusionInCatalogOnWAS" for u r corresponding WAS version.
U can download configuration document from service marketplace named " Configuration Fact Book CCM 2.0 "

Retrieving Freezed and Unfreezed data from a Single Report

Dear All,
I have a requirement where we have 2 types of users.
1. End User and 2. Super User 3. Intermediate Users
We have source system data which will be retieved on a daily basis.
Here Super user freeze the data ramdomly.
We need a report to be generated which with show
1.Freezed data to Super user
2. Unfreezed data to End User and
3. Intermediate User who needs both freezed and unfreezed data.
Can someone suggest the most optimal way to execute this requirement.
Early response will be appreciable.
Thanks,
Sai Gautam

Hi,
you could use the scheduling function of BOE for this.
For the Super Users: The Report will be scheduled after the data has been frezzed
For the End Users: They can run the Report On- Demand on any Time
For Intermediate Users: They can do both. View the Instance of the Scheduled Report and run the Report On- Demand
This could be handled by Permissions in BOE.

OSX Server Time Machine - can't authenticate OS X yosemite clients

running a bunch of clients at home, all on OSX Yosemite 10.10.1 - aim is to backup using time machine over home network. I have enabled time machine on the OS X server (mac mini, Yosemite 10.10.1 running OS X Server) - I can see the backup volume from the other mac clients - but I keep getting invalid user name password errors from different clients. have reset, changed all settings, created accounts etc - still cannot authenticate. Error only appears after a few minutes when its clear that the client time machine is not doing anything.

Your setup might need some more descriptions, ie: backuping on SMB3, AFP for top cats to be able to help you and for me to benefit from the answer when I get there.
These threads accept screen grabs and pictures of all kind, it saves typing.
I'm barely trying to figure out Time Machine for Clients. Do the clents backup on a different volume that the OS X server and OS is on, how do these client's TM get backed up somewhere else?
Also wondered about the SMB 3 versus Open Directory and Certificates, signed (3rd party of self).
Let's see answers pop in...

Restore data from Lion with Time Machine

Help needed!
I am going to buy a new iMac. Currently I am using Lion (10.7.5) and backing up with Time Machine. So the question is: Can I restore the data from the Time Machine to a new iMac with Mountain Lion or do I need to first upgrade Lion to Mountain Lion?
Thanks for helping me!

You can restore this Lion Time Machine backup without any problem. During the first startup of the new iMac, it will ask you to restore the backup, so choose the option to restore from an external drive and follow the steps.
You will be able to choose what you want to restore, and as you have newer system apps versions than the ones that the backup has, they won't be replacing, keeping Mac OS X working correctly. Read > http://pondini.org/OSX/SetupLion.html
